Imagine we could build an AI (Artificial Intelligence) and, assuming it does not almost instantly destroy us all, we task it with answering various questions (how to cure this, how to solve that etc.). Imagine this near omnipotent intelligence functions in the way we desire, rather than misinterpreting the nature and spirit of our questions, and has the full ability and desire to answer these questions truthfully and conclusively. Imagine we ask this AI to tell us how we can have true equal rights.

When it comes to equality that people advocate and fight for, there are 3 basic types. Equal rights, Equal opportunity and Equal outcome.

It is vitally important to understand each of these and what they entail.

Equal Rights is so important that it virtually defines what the Nations of Sanity demand and is the desired consequence of what we represent.Equal Opportunity is a noble virtue we strive to achieve for both our collective benefit and its moral virtue. But Equal Outcome is an illogical pursuit that insidiously and with tragic irony conflicts with the other two to the point of being virtually an opposing ideology and pursuit.

An area that appears to require particular clarification, when speaking about the free society that is proposed/demanded by the Nations Of Sanity, is concerning children.

People ask if you can sell heroine to a 6 year old in a voluntary (free) society and while the answer to that question is a definite and logically obvious NO, the fact that it is even asked demonstrates the need to explain precisely why you cannot sell heroine to a child.

The reason why you cannot sell heroine to a child, is the same reason why you cannot have sex with a child, and the same reason why you cannot enter into a legal contract with a child. A child cannot consent.

After people have grasped what the NAP (Non Aggression Principle) is and understand the basic implications of establishing this principle as law it is not hard to see what of our current society would remain the same and what would change. The basic stuff is obvious. Theft, rape, murder, assault (all of which are illegal today) remain illegal under any law that is based on the NAP while drug laws, gambling laws and anything else that violates self ownership would be gone. Taxation would be illegal as would government as a ruling force. The principle is clear and how it applies to each situation is pretty clear as well, but some areas may require a little more consideration than others do.

In the world of Anarchism there still manages to be an ideological divide that bares depressing similarities to the left and right wing divide in standard political ideologies (otherwise known as Statism). Just like the left and right wing approaches to statism, there is a divide among anarchists that seems to result from an irreconcilable divide in ideology, especially from a matter of economics.

It's all very well having the Non Aggression Principle (NAP) to protect property rights, but that only works when rightful ownership is agreed and established.For the most part ownership is clear, obvious and already established as it is the result of voluntary trade.But we cannot escape the reality that a lot of what is owned today was, at some point, stolen.

Through governments and government facilitated corporations both our past and our present is littered, perhaps even defined, by theft.So what do we do about this?

This is a message from the Nations Of Sanity to any and all sane people on this planet. For Sanity's sake, we've got to get it together.

I know we've had our differences, all of us, and we will continue to have our differences. But those are subjective differences and while we will continue to disagree on virtually everything and anything (and so we should) we do need a common ground of basic sanity where everyone can come together and agree.

The Nations Of Sanity is made up of our demands and our proposals. Our demand is for the NAP (Non Aggression Principle) to be the new rule of law and for all people to be granted the freedom that the NAP demands. With that demand we have a proposal for the optimum way to implement this.
